There’s even an option to view a graph of your battery’s charge level over time. Launch the app and press the Check Light key, and the app displays detailed information about the keyboard’s battery and charging status: how much light the solar cells are receiving, the remaining charge, and whether or not you need to position the keyboard to get more light. If that’s not enough information for you, you can download Logitech’s Solar App from the Mac App Store. Press this button, and if the keyboard is getting enough light to charge its battery, a green LED next to the happy face lights up if not, you see a red light next to the sad face. How do you know if the keyboard is getting enough light? The keyboard sports a Check Light button, just above the numeric keypad and next to happy-face and sad-face icons, for checking the light level. In that case, you may want to occasionally put the keyboard on your desk when you head out for lunch. One exception, however, is that if you use a slide-out keyboard drawer, you may find that the drawer doesn’t pull out far enough to completely expose the solar cells to light. For obvious reasons, I wasn’t able to test this claim, but in real-world use, it means that if you’re using the K750 in most office environments, you’ll never have to worry about a low battery.

In a well-lit office, the K750’s battery takes advantage of that ambient light to maintain a full charge according to Logitech, that would let you use the K750 for three months in total darkness. Instead, the keyboard’s internal, rechargeable battery can be charged by ambient light in all but the darkest of rooms. I make that distinction because unlike most solar-powered gadgets, the K750 doesn’t require actual sunlight.

As the keyboard’s name implies, the K750 for Mac is solar-powered-or, more accurately, light powered. (See the images in the gallery at the top of this review.) But all of the models have something in common: two strips of solar cells along that top edge. The K750 for Mac is available in five color combinations: silver with white keys black with black keys and white-on-white with either blue, green, or pink trim along the top edge of the keyboard.
